A friend of mine blew his 333 up and sent it to back Levinson. It was out of warranty and he was the second owner. The parts list of what they replaced was several pages long and the only thing he had to pay was the shipping. Your friend might want to contact ML before you tackle it yourself.

They say $1,200 flat fee - that's Harmon Int'l in Bedford Ma.
But the amp is warranteed for the defecto power supply caps...
which is probably the only problem, assuming the physical leakies from them didn't corrode the PCB somewhere.

Still would like to see a schematic from this series.

Some dealers can get you schematic for ML stuff. I once got them from Buffallo dealer, whom I persueded that I might buy the amp, if I see schematic first. I paid $20 and after a week he mailed me schematics of ML27 and 23.

I went to the major Toronto Madrigal dealer, asking for ML31.5 schematic (as I have all the modules of that transport and need a map to put them together) and they say they never see any schematics. If something needs repair, they replace the whole board. That might explain $1200 price tag from a previous post.

Last time I listened to Aleph X it was a year ago. I'm thinking about building a new version, using all experience I gained while playing with chip amps.

Then I'll connect it to ML preamp. A friend of mine is using Aleph 4 with ML380 preamp and he likes the combination.
